Eucommia ulmoides is on-list in the evidence table. This listing is the first fact in the hardy rubbertree profile and applies only to the cited species entry.
One ecological invasive report accompanies an accepted fire pack that is limited evidence. The evidence rows keep the listing's support inspectable without absorbing the ecological report into a fire-performance conclusion.
Range evidence supplies distribution context, while related plants offers a comparison route. Both destinations remain outside the selected pack; they do not enlarge the on-list finding, source depth, or single-report count here.

Typed publication scope: 1 scope across 1 cited fire source
Ohio State University Extension Bulletin 921 is an Ohio publication that describes Ohio fire seasons and landscape conditions and labels nativity to Ohio. FireApproved publishes 352 exact source-owning plant records from its eight rated tables. This historical publication scope does not assert current extension endorsement or that a listed plant suits every Ohio site.

How to read this page
The status above is computed from the cited rows below: independent recommendations can support a fire-resistant result, an avoid row can produce keep-away, and disagreement stays visible as conflict. Placement notes preserve each source’s own scheme rather than translating unlike rules into one scale. This is evidence about a plant, not permission to plant it in every part of the defensible space; Zone 0 remains noncombustible.
Native and introduced range evidence
These are exact U.S. botanical-area records from the cited range source. Native and
introduced describe biogeographic relationship, not fire performance or planting approval.
Doubtful and extinct rows stay visible but do not count as current presence.
The lossless worldwide derivative is retained once in the research corpus; object pages repeat only exact U.S. areas needed by the local lens. The JSON twin carries the same page assertions.
The evidence
Grouped by what each source concluded. Primary evidence rated the plant itself
(a lab, field program, or original curation); corroboration compiled or
republished another source's rating and resolves to its root lineage.
